Gingerbread Kaiju

It’s Christmastime in Tokyo, and sirens are blaring. Men, women, and children put aside work, school, shopping, and the many distractions that life in modern Japan offers. They move quickly, but calmly to the nearest emergency shelters, for they know only too well what these klaxons mean. Soon the air will be filled with the smell of freshly baked dough, cinnamon, and nutmeg—the kaiju are coming!

Gingerbread Kaiju is a none-too-serious board game where each player takes on the role of a kaiju—a giant monster of incredible destructive force—that happens to be made entirely of gingerbread. As anyone who has seen a Godzilla or Gamera movie will tell you, kaiju do not generally get along very well . . . and they ALL hate Tokyo!

In this game, your kaiju will smash up the city to gather power, then unleash this confectionary wrath on the other monsters in hopes of destroying them all and being crowned the King of the Kaiju!

Not at this time. Since it's 13 pages long, we thought having interested folks print it from their printer was more economical than paying for a print version.
That said we are considering an updated, expanded version in the next couple of years, which we hope to have print options for.

These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format

These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
